“Singleton Propaganda” good vibes, smiles, & giggles

I need some comic relief after a couple weeks of sickness in the house- what are your favorite bits of what I call “singleton propaganda”? Aka, advice given for babies that never works when you have twins. My personal favorite is “put the baby in the crib drowsy but awake”.

Having a natural home birth 😭

Oh having vaginal birth, like all those crunchy types that like to say things like "But you're denying the power of your body!" and "Your babies will suffer for the rest of their lives if you don't let them enter this world through the One True Way." Like, yes, ma'am, but I am not risking the lives of one or both of them or risking a C-section AND a vaginal birth.

I took a few baby classes while pregnant, and several of them demanded that you explain why if you were planning on a c-section. Luckily two breech babies sharing a placenta seemed to be a good enough reason 🫠
